Lather up! The best cold process soap recipe

This is a great recipe for a bar of soap that everyone in the family can use. The soap produced is moisturising, generates a lot of lather and is gentle on the skin.

And it’s pretty straightforward to make, too, just as long as you wear eye protection, and keep little kids and pets away as you work… this is because one of the ingredients, lye, can damage sight if it gets in the eyes, and is not designed to be drunk!

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
